I didn't doubt your description of your hardware, I just wanted you to know that these are not the Nighthawk WiFi Routers devices covered in this bit of the Netgear Community. So any answers may not be relevant to you.

  • Turn off and unplug modem.
  • Turn off router and computers.
  • Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
  • Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
  • Turn on computers and rest of network.
